Inside Our Embrace the Heat Launch @ Sila Miami
This past weekend, we have celebrated the launch of Embrace the Heat with an intimate, sold-out curated wellness experience at the stunning new social wellness club, Sila Miami.
More than just an event, Reset Sunday was our way of showing how the sauna can be a powerful centerpiece in your recovery ritual - and how you can take its benefits even deeper with the right intention, flow, and tools.
Why Sauna Deserves the Spotlight in Your Recovery Routine
Sauna is one of the most well-researched wellness practices we have - known to support cardiovascular health, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and activate the body’s natural detox processes. Most of the well-studied sauna benefits come from traditional Finnish-style saunas at 176°F and above, with sessions lasting 15 to 20 minutes.
That kind of heat can feel intense - especially if you’re just starting out.
That’s exactly why we created Embrace - to help you feel more comfortable in the heat, stay present instead of resisting it, and build rituals you actually look forward to. Because when you enjoy the experience, you’ll want to come back again and again - and that’s where the real transformation happens.
Our Reset Sunday Ritual: Breathe, Sweat, Release
Our launch experience brought the Embrace philosophy to life through a curated flow that paired the sauna with powerful complementary practices.
Guests were welcomed with a curated gift set valued at over $150 - featuring a selection of our signature Embrace products, including our iconic Embrace Tote, Embrace Diffuser Set and Flow Gua sha as well as other recovery themed products.
Step 1: Aromatherapy + Breathwork
Guests were invited to explore a curated selection of 16 essential oils - discovering the scent that resonated most with them in that moment. Every single essential oil was chosen by at least one person during the experience, a reminder of how uniquely personal scent truly is. Each oil offered its own energetic and aromatic profile, allowing everyone to personalize their ritual in a way that felt intuitive and supportive.
Using the Embrace passive diffuser, guests paired their chosen oil with grounding breathwork - creating a moment of presence and intention before stepping into the heat.
Step 2: Sauna + Cold Plunge
Next, guests stepped into one of the most stunning saunas in Miami - the heart of our Reset Sunday ritual. Here, they had the chance to try Embrace sauna hats firsthand and experience the difference they make. Since the head heats up fastest in the sauna, wearing a sauna hat helps regulate that initial heat spike - making it easier to stay in longer, feel more comfortable, and ease into the session.
Following the heat, guests moved into the cold plunge set at a refreshing 50°F - a safe and effective contrast for both men and women. Many chose to move through the hot–cold sequence multiple times, deepening their recovery and reconnecting with their bodies in the process.
Step 3: Lymphatic Activation & Drainage
After contrast therapy, guests joined a hands-on lymphatic drainage workshop led by expert practitioner Samantha Ortiz from Zenith Studio. She began by explaining how the lymphatic system works and guided everyone through activating key lymph nodes - a crucial step before drainage.
Using Flow Gua sha and fractionated coconut oil (both included in the gift bag), guests learned simple techniques to stimulate lymph flow, reduce bloating, and support detox.
More than a one-time ritual, this session was designed to give guests tools they can use anytime, anywhere to recover better - long after the event ends.
Step 4: Recovery Tea Lounge & Nervous System Reset
The final stop of the day was our Recovery Tea Lounge - a calming space where guests could relax, connect, and sip on herbal blends alongside curated healthy snacks.
We also included cards with tips to help reset the nervous system, giving guests the chance to keep learning, exploring, and deepening their personal recovery rituals.
Embracing the Heat, Together
Reset Sunday wasn’t just a celebration of our launch - it was a glimpse into what Embrace is all about.
We believe the sauna is one of the most powerful recovery tools we have - but its benefits are amplified when paired with presence, intention, and ritual. This experience was designed to show what’s possible when we stop seeing the heat as something to endure, and start embracing it as something to enjoy.
Embrace was created to help people feel more comfortable in the heat, so they can actually enjoy it - and stay long enough to feel the benefits. We’re here to shift the way people approach recovery: not as a chore, but as a ritual.
We’re building a community of heat lovers - people who see the sauna not as a challenge, but as a reset. A space to slow down, reconnect, and return to themselves.
This is just the beginning. We’re so glad you’re here.
